Sample Answer
On my last project, a React/TypeScript design system used by about 12 product teams, I set up a three-layer testing approach. For unit tests, we used Jest with React Testing Library to cover pure logic and critical hooks; we got to ~85% coverage on shared utilities. For component tests, we used Storybook with interaction tests plus Testing Library to validate behavior and edge cases directly against our stories. Then for end-to-end, we used Playwright in CI to run a smoke suite against our main user flows in under 8 minutes. This stack caught a lot of subtle bugs early: unit tests caught a date math issue that would have broken time zones for ~30% of our users, component tests surfaced an aria-label regression in a reusable modal, and Playwright caught a race condition in our login redirect that only appeared in production-like latency. After we put this in place, production UI regressions dropped by about 40% over two quarters.

In your civil engineering studies, what specific design coursework or project work did you complete related to irrigation channels or canals (e.g., design of lined/unlined canals, distributaries, minors)? Describe one such design in detail, including how you determined discharge, permissible velocity, section dimensions, and lining choice for Gujarat-type soil and climate conditions.
Based on your hydrology and irrigation engineering background, explain how you would estimate the irrigation water requirement for a kharif crop in a semi-arid region of Gujarat. Walk me through each step: from reference evapotranspiration estimation, crop coefficient selection, effective rainfall calculation, to arriving at canal discharge for a given command area.
Walk me through a recent multi-channel digital marketing campaign you managed end-to-end. How did you set objectives, choose channels, allocate budget, and measure success?
In your resume you note improving or optimizing [a process, KPI, or metric]. What specific baseline metrics did you start from, what steps did you personally take, and how did you verify that the improvement was due to your changes rather than external factors?
On your resume you mention working on a cross-functional project (e.g., involving multiple teams or stakeholders). Describe a situation from that project where priorities conflicted—how did you navigate the trade-offs and what was the final outcome?
